As my old faithful Bourjois CC cream ran out I was looking for a replacement. I liked a sample of the Eborian BB cream I received in a beauty box years ago, so I decided to get the travel sized BB crayon au Ginseng in Clair (fair) as it is currently on sale £16.10 rather than £23 on their website.
The BB crayon is a multi purpose stock which is infused with Ginseng. It is promoted as their BB Creme and hydration in a makeup and skin care stick. The crayon can be used as a concealer, to touch up or to even out your complexion on your whole face whilst also moisturising it.
I wanted to use the crayon to even out and cover my whole face. I drew stripes of the cream down my nose, cheek bones, forehead, chin and blended it in so my complexion was evened out and the redness was covered. I then went pack to cover any imperfections (spots) with another layer of cream. I found that the BB crayon left my skin looking natural and velvety with my real skin peeking through so it didn’t look like a mask. I found that even though it was a stick format the stripes blended out really well and I didn’t have to use as much as I initially thought I would. My makeup blended well on top of the product and my skin looked great. I would expect it to last several months if I use it 2/3 times per week. I found it didn’t clog my pores and I didn’t get any reactionary breakouts as I normally do when I’m trying out new complexion products.
I would repurchase this and I have also purchased a travel sized BB cream just to try it out.
I purchased the item myself and the views expressed in my blog are my own.
I’ve been looking an alternative to the BB cream format too so this is really interesting and makes me more likely to purchase a stick type and something that lasts longer too is brilliant.
